Interpretation of The First World Consensus Conference on Pancreas Transplantation / 中华器官移植杂志

ABSTRACT

The First World Consensus Conference on Pancreas Transplantation was initially formulated in 2019 and formally promulgated in 2021.It was composed of 49 jury deliberations regarding the effects of pancreas transplantation on the treatment of diabetics and 110 expert consensus opinions for practicing pancreas transplantation in terms of donor/recipient selections, immunosuppressant regimens, surgical techniques and post-transplant prophylactic strategies.The tenet of this consensus conference is that all types of pancreas transplantation could improve long-term patient survival, the quality-of-life of recipients and optimize the course of chronic complications of diabetes.This review attempted to further interpret the guidelines to improve clinical practicability.
